Title: Small Izzy mention on Blabbermouth Post by: jarmo on December 05, 2005, 01:44:17 PM Another guitarist who was unknown then, Adam Bomb, has also made it clear he was asked to audition for KISS back in 1981. In Bomb's biography it states that in 1981 "at age 16, Adam was asked to audition for KISS. He flew to Los Angeles and played three songs with KISS." A year later, he'd hook up with future GUNS N' ROSES guitarist Izzy Stradlin and also became friends with future KISS guitarist Tommy Thayer (who back then was still the guitarist in BLACK N' BLUE).

But I wonder if it gave any good info about Izzy's early Hollywood years? Must have some stories to tell there.

As far as I know the only good parts in that book are the interviews with Jimmy Ashurst and Eddie Asworth (producer of JJH and 117). And from what I've heard what Jimmy says in that bio also is said in a interview in June this year which is on www.izzy.34sp.com (but the site is currently down) |
